What difference does it make? It'll be sure to be stolen from someone
else, like this one you stole.

http://picasaweb.google.com/lh/photo/V982p2v7LkZWlRi3YMP0Mg?feat=directlink

When you hover your cursor on the "Belongs to" link, it clearly states
"Vance Lear".

Yet we find proof-positive that this image is owned and copyrighted by
someone else.

http://mothphotographersgroup.msstate.edu/species.php?hodges=08262

With this copyright notice clearly stated at the beginning of that page:
"Photographs are the copyrighted property of each photographer listed
Contact individual photographers for permission to use for any purpose."

I guess you fail to understand the meaning of the word "any".

Nothing but a low-life photo thief and troll, 100% confirmed.

Are known thieves allowed to submit photos to the SI? Maybe all the photos
submitted to the SI have been stolen. If one known-photo thief is allowed,
perhaps there's more, many more. Birds of a feather ....

Yep, definitely spare potential.

BTW: Thursday is the 3rd. You have the deadline as the 4th on the
Rulzpage, that is Friday????

Mine are already in, but I think you might 'splain to alleviate
confusion for those who might be disturbed by the conflict.

....but that's an "A" not an "M".

An older brother was with the Omaha police department (1969-1976), before an
on-duty traffic accident forced him to quit. He was a pedestrian and his leg
got severely injured, giving him a bit of a permanent limp. (In 2007, he had
a knee-replacement operation.)

His post-1976 employment has been as a member of campus security (at a local
"metropolitan college"); he's a few years older, than you are.

In 1992, his son (i.e., my nephew) became an officer...whose retirement age
will most likely be somewhat younger, compared to that of a certain feathered
foe of "fowl" play.
